Chapter 169 Persistence and hard work
Seeing Pipa's half-understanding look, Luo Mu patted him on the shoulder and explained to him how to link Pokémon's enthusiasm to positive feedback, and how to use the positive feedback system to allow Pokémon to train Integrate the taboo PUA secrets into daily life and more.
This method may seem crude, but it is very suitable for Pokémon like Greedy Chinchilla who love to eat. There are even cases where Kirby's trainer used this training method to successfully lose weight for Kirby.
Luo Mu felt that this method could be used to gradually cultivate the greedy chinchilla's interest in training, at least to make it less resistant.
Leaving Pipa, whose notebook was full of words, to think alone, Luo Mu came to the neat desk and mentally recalled the competition rules mentioned by Miss Afeng when registering.
First, the competition adopts a scoring system, with only one round and rankings based on scores.
Secondly, the materials for the competition are prepared by the contestants themselves. Preparing appropriate ingredients is also a required course for a qualified pastry chef.
Thirdly, the desserts will be made on-site at the temporary venue set up by Paisue Mousse. Pre-made desserts are not allowed to participate in the competition.
Luo Mu felt that the rules of the competition were very beneficial to him just because he could prepare materials by himself.
but
Luo Mu glanced at the baby bear in the sitting posture of the old man without leaving any trace, and knew that no matter how good the materials were, he had to at least make a Baofen that would satisfy the baby bear.
Although there are ways to obtain the candy decorations needed for the evolution of Fairy Milk at places such as battle cafes, Luo Mu feels that the candy decorations he obtained through cooperation with Fairy Milk are even more meaningful.
Anyway, there is a way out, and this competition is more like an opportunity for him to learn how to make Baofen.
Luo Mu rolled up his sleeves and started making with the encouragement of Xiao Xian Nai!
The process of learning to make is always boring and tedious. Problems with the heat, the ratio of materials, or the unreasonable baking time will make the finished product Baofen completely rejected by Baby Bear.
The recipe of the Baofen made for the first time was completely different from that of Miss Afeng. The ingredients were easier to cook than Miss Afeng’s special maple sugar Baofen. Luo Mu had a problem with the control of the heat, and the finished product was dark and lumpy. Reveal Baofen's original appearance.
The baby bear just smelled it and asked Luo Mu to take it away with disgust, as if Luo Mu was going to poison it.
Luo Mu was not discouraged even after peeling it off. He calmly ate it under the horrified gaze of the baby bear. Although the shape and texture were not very good, there was no big problem with the taste.
Just kidding, Luo Mu, who cherishes food, said that when he first came back from time travel and was struggling with food and clothing, he had even eaten food that was more unpalatable than this. What does this mean?
The so-called cooking is progressing through constant trials and failures. Luo Mu continued to improve the taste and heat based on the cooking book left by Miss Afeng, striving to make the kind of Baofen he wanted.
If you want to be better than other contestants, you have to make a more unique Poffin.
The day passed quietly like this. At night, before Luo Mu rode the dragon and left Yuanmo Town, he asked Pipa: "Don't you need to go back to the Lighthouse Research Institute?"
Piper shook his head: "I am temporarily living in the Pokémon Center, and I am still practicing during spring break."
Luo Mu didn't force it, and rode the dragon back to the farm on the outskirts of Pingdie Town.
The next morning, Luo Mu returned to the kitchen in Yuanmo Town with the key and continued Baofen's practice.
The baby bears and Pipa he pulled over both looked sleepy. When Pipa, who was dozing against the wall, finally woke up, it was already time for Miss Afeng to visit the class.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, A Feng smelled a fresh aroma. Different from her special maple sugar poffin, this smell was even more refreshing.
Because of the fragrance, A Feng's eyes shone slightly.
She happened to see the bear cub eager to take Baofen from Luo Mu, although he had a disgusted look on his face, which surprised Afeng a little.
Baby bears are particularly picky about taste, and their taste is also sweet like other baby bears. Being able to accept this slightly sweet dessert means that Luo Mu has been able to make a qualified poffin.
And only a day and a half has passed.
Pipa yawned and said lazily: "Brother Luo Mu hasn't left the kitchen during this time, and he is constantly trying out and making adjustments."
"Today too, he woke me up from my bed in the Pokémon Center early in the morning."
Afeng was silent for a while.
Perhaps she knew how Luo Mu became the proud champion trainer of Padya in just one year.
Persistence and hard work are always the only keys to becoming stronger.
Not to mention Luo Mu's talent as a trainer already amazed Afeng.
The Luckcat that defeated three of her bug Pokémon in a row is still fresh in Afeng's memory.
Realizing Afeng's arrival, Luo Mu handed over a green poffin and said with a smile, "Miss Afeng, how about trying the mint poffin?"
"Mint Poffin?" Afeng took the Poffin and put it in his mouth to taste, but he hesitated to speak.
Sensing Afeng's strangeness, Luo Mu made a gesture of invitation: "If Miss Afeng has any suggestions, please feel free to put them forward."
Afeng pondered for a while and asked: "Are you trying to increase the judges' impression of your Baofen with different flavors?"
Luo Mu nodded: "This is one of the plans. If the development of new flavors of Baofen does not catch up, I plan to do this."
"After eating some sweet food, I think the referees may need to relieve their tiredness. The fresh mint flavor is undoubtedly an excellent choice."
Afeng shook his head and said: "There will be other contestants who are just like you. The judges this time are all gourmets who have a persistent pursuit of desserts. If you want to stand out, I personally suggest that you still have to make your own characteristics. Come."
"Features."
Luo Mu was unusually silent. Both Hai Dai and Super Miaomiao mentioned that he was skilled in cooking but lacked spiritual energy.
So, what are his characteristics?
Luo Mu thought of everyone on the farm, maybe
Seeing Luo Mu who was deep in thought, Afeng knew that this was the only point he could not intervene in. He could only provide support to Luo Mu on Baofen's taste and process.
In this way, time flies by like a flash.
After three days of practice, the dessert competition jointly organized by the Padia Dessert Association and the Sinnoh Dessert Association opened.
The location is located outside Paisley Mousse, covered by a canopy of sugar maple trees. The temporary simple kitchen has been prepared, and gas, electricity and water have been connected.
Luo Mu put the fairy milk on his head, took the materials he had prepared, and walked to the competition venue.
I always accidentally label Miss A Feng as Miss A'Du (Ｔ▽Ｔ)
